Considering the international presence of the majority of businesses and contemplated joint ventures today, there are numerous considerations that could have significant impact should a dispute or litigation arise. While choice of law, choice of forum, and arbitration clauses may not be at the forefront of consideration in the midst of an emerging commercial venture, it is crucial to receive effective legal counsel related to such considerations before becoming contractually bound by any agreement. Given the vast options in terms of the governing law, location of a litigation should one arise, and arbitral institutions and formulations, it is often difficult to make the right choices in an agreement. It can be crucial to your business to get tailored advice from lawyers with international and litigation experience from the contract drafting stage to the resolution of a dispute that may arise. The right advice in relation to choice of law, choice of forum, and international arbitration agreements in commercial deals can both protect your business and put it in a favorable initial position if a dispute arises as well as placing it in advantageous position for the negotiation and settlement of disputes. Our broad experiences and practical approach to counselling our clients allows us to identify and manage risks, then plan for the effective resolution of disputes that might jeopardize your business.

Every company is unique and so are their labor and employment needs. Employment laws differ based on the number of individuals a company employs, the nature of the work, the geographic location of the business, and the company’s business model. The RSF team of attorneys provides a wide range of services to employers and employees to ensure that companies abide by the labor and employment laws. We regularly represent both employers and employees in litigation, arbitration, and mediation related to purported violations of employment laws. We also assist with employment and work place policies and agreements, helping the companies avoid potential liability and expensive litigation.
Development of Proper Policies
Our team understands that running a business can be stressful and that employment-related issues can easily be overlooked. Employers often run into issues, whether it be with its one employees and officers or the federal and state agencies, due to oversights, changes in the law, or other incidental failure to abide by labor and employment laws and regulations. We work closely with companies to develop policies compliant with the employment laws in your particular geographic location or to assure that policies that are already in place are sufficiently compliant.
Investigating Possible Violations
Our team regularly provides legal assistance to businesses and individual employers accused of violating employment laws—by employees, the Department of Labor, or other equivalent regulatory bodies depending on the jurisdiction. Our lawyers have the necessary skillset and experience when it comes to investigations of allegations based on the employer’s particular policies, how the employer actually works with its employees (which, unfortunately, is often different than the employer’s policies), and assessing those policies and actual practice in conjunction with the applicable laws for the jurisdiction where the business in located in order to provide businesses and employees an assessment of claims and issues.
Litigating Violations of Labor and Employment Laws
When all else fails, our team has experience in litigating, arbitrating, and mediating employment-related lawsuits across the United States, from both the employer and employee side of the litigation. We take a business-minded approach to litigating these claims and understands that “winning” an employment-related claim for an employer is often more difficult than simply obtaining a judgment due to the cost and stress related to an employment litigation. Often, entering into non-binding and confidential mediation in advance of an employment lawsuit is a good way to resolve the matter in lieu of a lengthy, expensive, and public trial. Moreover, we remain mindful that, regardless of whether there are actual violations, employment litigation often catches the eye of federal, state, and local employment agencies, resulting in costly investigations and possibly regulatory enforcement actions.
Regulatory Action
In addition to civil lawsuits, regulators at the federal, state, and local level also bring enforcement actions against employers based on information that regulators may acquire from various sources, including but not limited to filings in civil actions and complaints from employees. Our attorneys are experienced in representing clients in regulatory negotiations in advance of litigation and, where necessary, litigation and regulatory proceedings. When working with regulators, we always aim to keep each business’ goals in mind and provide advice and advocacy in line with the goals of each particular case.
